Dennis Lindsey: We will be VERY active in free agency

I would like a legit, veteran forward, but I'm not at all bummed that the Jazz are staying disciplined.

Again, I'd rather the Jasz really impress next year and head into 2017 with a max slot, a sick talent/asset pool, and then going shopping for a legit max player.

A potential Defensive Player of the Year can ALWAYS be flipped for value. If Exum explodes and has to be paid, somebody like Gobert can be traded for value. You get him under contract then worry about making pieces fit. Look at ******* Mozgov, would you take that stiff or a maxed Gobert? It is a whole different story than a defensive specialist stuck in a SF's body. . .

I agree with your idea. But Utah could never trade AK, Al, Millsap, etc. It sounds nice, but in reality Utah has only moved Deron for anything of any worth and Gobert is nowhere near as valuable as Deron was.

All I'm saying is that if Exum showed any life or potential this year...I might sniff around and see what Gobert could get me in a trade.

Nah, not at all.

The only disadvantage they share is they are both cold weather locations.

And you are clearly implying that.

So you are telling me that there is no racial stigma in certain areas as opposed to others? I want to believe that. I guess we will see. . .

Gobert is our most valuable asset right now. If they pay Hayward the max (which they will, even though I am begging them not too for the sake of this current groups future) they have to pay Gobert. His defensive abilities are a rare commodity. He effects gameplans and changes games unlike anyone else we have. My guess is they pay Hayward the max, pay Gobert the max, and Favors gets in the 20-25 million range himself. And they ride with this group happy to just be in the playoffs every year until it's time to rebuild again.

Hayward and Favors are much more valuable than Gobert right now. Hayward is by far our best player. Out of Hayward, Favors and Gobert, Hayward might be the only player worthy of a max deal.

Oh, so who did we trade any of those players for?

We unceremoniously dumped them in order to take tens of millions in worthless contracts. I don't think the Jazz are as sentimental as you think they are, especially for guys who have never been to the playoffs.

"Could never?"

Guess Lebron James couldn't be traded by that logic. Couldn't =/= Didn't. And what the **** do you know about the behind-the-scenes **** anyway? That question is rhetorical.
